A Novel Seven Input Majority Gate in Quantum-dot Cellular Automata
A Quantum Cellular Automaton (QCA) is a nanotechnology which is an attractive alternative for transistor based technologies in the near future. A new seven input majority gate in quantum dot cellular automata is proposed in this paper. The basic elements in QCA are majority and inverter gates, therefore using a majority gate with more inputs in QCA circuit will cause reduction in cell count, latency and complexity. Furthermore, by using the proposed seven input majority gate we can design four inputs AND gate and OR gate in only two clock phases. By applying these kinds of gates QCA circuits could be simplified and optimized. In order to prove the functionality of the proposed device, QCADesigner tool and some physical proofs are utilized.
Keywords: Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata, Majority gate, AND gate, OR gate, Nanoelectronic circuits.
